---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Tom, (Sivak, not Delay), As I previously said, I have my doubts that the post in question originated from the list, but your question raises some issues, in any case. First, I suspect that there are as many differences in the cultures of individual lists as there are similarities. The protocols that multi-listers like yourself tend to propagate might, at times, clash with those that have evolved in a more provincial, (that is, single -lister) environment. In other words, there may, in fact, be some characteristics unique to this particular list. As to the WHY question, the fact is, the specific piano techs, (not "piano techs" in general), some of whom have lived on this list for a number of years, often seem oblivious to the "public forum" aspect entirely, and treat it as if it were a semi-private list. I don't necessarily mean this as a criticism. This is true not only for OT issues, but for some professional and organizational (PTG) issues as well. Finally, as for what gets into your computer, that's a whole nother set of problems. As always, I could be wrong - David Skolnik At 08:51 AM 9/30/2005 -0400, you wrote: >My wife and I are subscribed to two other lists.
